Ethel A. DeLucy R.N.
OBITUARY
Ethel A. (Vieira) DeLucy R.N. of East Scranton died Saturday night at the Hospice of the Sacred Heart Dunmore.
Born in Bethlehem, daughter of the late Frank and Mary Silva Vieira, she was educated in Scranton schools. She graduated the Hahnemann Hospital nursing training school and earned her R.N., a fact that was always a topic of great pride for her.
Called sister, aunt, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and most recently great-great grandmother, she never missed an opportunity to joke, tease, or sing and dance around the kitchen table.
Ethel was a faithful parishioner at Immaculate Conception Parish in East Scranton and a devoted member of the Legion of Mary.
The family would like to thank the healthcare staff at Geisinger CMC Hospital and Sacred Heart Hospice in Dunmore for their dedicated service.
Surviving are: two daughters Mary G. Speaker, Patrice A. Martin, sons Eugene L. DeLucy Jr. and Joseph (Jay) DeLucy, her 14 grandchildren, 10 great grandchildren, 1 great great grandchild, her sister-in-law, Vivian Palazzi of Florida, and many nieces, nephews, and their children.
She was preceded in death by her husband Eugene DeLucy Sr., her three sisters and two brothers, daughter Sharon L. McNew, three grandchildren and one great grandchild.
